1. SEEKING EQUIPMENT FOR HIV/AIDS COUNSELLING OF YOUTH IN GHANA

Dear Members,

As we all know human rights is God's giving rights and therefore it is
expected that we should respect each persons rights. There is lot of human
rights abuses we all witness throughout the world. I know we all
understand that they are not the right things that we all witnesses.
Several things and problems we see are most times being enhanced by some
of these abuses.  HIV/AIDS is taken most of the lives of the young groups
and if something serious is not done about it we will experience something
that has never happened before.

My question is do we want to see in matured to be our leaders since from
age 1 to 14 and 15 years the affected number is not as high as from 15 to
45 years. In fact after the human rights programme, I have realized that
there is the need for me to do something in my own small way to champion
human rights/the above issues as well. The Institute of Adult
Education/University of Ghana in conjunction with UNFPA, are offering the
above programme as a pilot programme intended for Africa, and I have paid
and currently doing it. To be frank with members my perception has
completely changed and want to do a lot in this direction.

I am appealing to members/NGO's for support to start a serious work to
help others. I will need projector, slide, CD-Rom and other materials etc,
to help to sensitize the youth to lead good live to avoid being infected
or to stop the spread of the HIV/AIDS, a part from that any form of
assistance will be put to a very good use. My target areas will be the
small communities, most especially the illiterates.
